Bundles of documents related to Singadi TMC found at private individual’s house

VIJAYAPURA: Bundles of documents related to the Sindagi town municipal council were found at a private individual’s house in the town. The discovery was made after the TMC president Shantaveera Biradar led a raid on the house based on specific information, on Tuesday night.

During the raids, documents related to municipal tax, khata transfer and others were found at the house of Abhishek Kodage. The illegal transactions are believed to have caused huge monetary losses to the municipal council.

The TMC president and his supporters searched the entire house and discovered applications for property transfer, property purchase bonds, tax challans and various other documents. It is believed Abhishek used the municipal council executive officer’s login and executed the transactions at night.

Shantaveera Biradar said, “Apart from the documents, two computers and a laptop were found. We visited the house based on specific information. Abhishek may have been tipped off as he was not around. Now, we have come to know where the revenue leakage was happening. I had called the police sub-inspector, but he delayed coming to the spot. I was about to be assaulted, hence, I had to leave all the documents at the house itself and return. The district administration should order a detailed probe”.
